Chapter 1041: 1042
The ship was swiftly sailing, not solely due to the waves but because a Demonic Beast was exerting force underneath it!
“Quick, hoist the sails!”
“There are still Demonic Beasts in the water, let’s stop the ship first!”
Old Goat scread in alarm, signaling to his cultivators to bustle about in all directions.
“There are still Demonic Beasts underwater?”
“Was that one just now not the only one? Could there be Sea Clan Demonic Beasts from the Heavenly Immortal Realm?”
“Old Goat, are you sure you’ve taken the correct route? How co we keep encountering Demonic Beast attacks one after another?”
“Indeed, I’ve taken many ships before, and encountering two Demonic Beast attacks would be already a lot, usually, on this route, as long as you don’t court death yourself, Demonic Beasts won’t actively co looking for trouble. What happened today? We haven’t even traveled halfway and we’ve already encountered two Demonic Beast attacks in succession. We must get a refund after this trip!”
“Damn right, refund!”
The cultivators on deck, who had just taken a breath of relief, beca taut with tension again. No sooner had the big shot dealt with the Sea Dragon Horse than another Demonic Beast launched an attack on the ship.
What on earth was going on, had there been a major problem in the sea area, or had Old Goat taken the wrong path?
Earlier, this old fellow didn’t use oars and relied completely on the waves, could it be that today’s waves were different from usual and had led the ship off course?
“You bla , but even I don’t know!”
“The route is correct, look behind, there is another rchant ship. We are all part of a line of teams; the big problem has arisen within this sea area!”
Old Goat felt very wronged, but even more so, he was utterly bewildered. The other rchant ship teams behind them were also on the sa route, and they weren’t too far apart either, so why was it just their ship that the Demonic Beasts targeted?
What exactly was the Demonic Beast under their ship?
No matter what they tried, hoisting sails, dropping anchors, launching attacks underwater, the speed of the ship never decreased. It continued to rapidly flee towards the distance at an abnormal speed.
Their Cultivation Techniques and cultivation levels were nothing more than a drizzle to the unknown Sea Clan Demonic Beast, which flat-out ignored them.
“Uncle Huo, what do you make of this?”
Li Xiaobai grew interested. He had just sent off one, and imdiately another Sea Clan Demonic Beast lunged over. They were practically delivering resources to him!
“It doesn’t seem like a natural disaster, it’s more like man-made calamity.”
Uncle Huo pondered aloud.
“What do you an by that? Are you suggesting soone deliberately lured these Demonic Beasts here?”
Han Buzhu squinted and asked from the side.
“What would be the benefit of doing so? If soone deliberately drew in powerful Demonic Beasts, that person would also have to die.”
“Young Master Han, don’t be hasty, I’m just speculating. After all, my Huo Family has traveled north and south for many years and has so understanding of the situation in these sea areas. There are indeed many Heavenly Immortal Realm Demonic Beasts in these waters leading to the Southern Continent, and even Semi-Saint beasts are not uncommon. But the route chosen by the ship convoy, in all these years, I haven’t really seen many powerful beasts, Earth Immortal Realm ones only occasionally, and Heavenly Immortal Realm ones even more rarely. Compared to that, today’s situation is indeed a bit abnormal.”
Uncle Huo waved his hand dismissively.
“Talking about all this is useless, the pressing matter is to find out exactly what kind of Demonic Beast is beneath this ship, what cultivation level and realm it is in so that we can tailor our strategy to combat it.”
Uncle Han said in a deep voice, feeling sowhat uncertain. That Sea Dragon Horse earlier had taught him a stern lesson. The Demonic Beasts in these waters were not simple and couldn’t be easily defeated.
This ti, they would probably have to rely on Li Xiaobai again.
“It’s just a matter of forcing that Demonic Beast to show itself, no big deal!”
Li Xiaobai flipped his wrist, pulled a mud ball from his chest and casually tossed it overboard into the sea.
“Young Master, what is this…”
The crowd was puzzled; what use was throwing a ball of mud?
“Don’t worry, let the explosion fly for a while!”
Li Xiaobai spoke confidently without a hint of panic. The combined power of more than ten Stars of Earthly Explosion would be more than enough to blast out that mysterious Demonic Beast.
The cultivators were a bit confused, but soon it seed they realized sothing; their eyes were filled with shock as they turned their gaze towards the world outside the ship. In the sea, they could feel faint yet massive and turbulent energy fluctuations.
“Boom!”
A thunderous explosion sounded. The water around the ship was blasted high into the sky, forming spectacular and beautiful water dragons.
Fierce and intense energy fluctuations swept in all directions, and the ship trembled. Along with the water, a large number of shit-yellow strange creatures were blasted into the sky. They looked no different from buttons as they tumbled through the air before falling back into the sea like dumplings.
“Squeak squeak squeak squeak!”
A grating, sharp noise echoed in the ears of the cultivators.
“What the hell is this thing!”
Li Xiaobai didn’t recognize these Demonic Beasts, which seed to be social creatures moving in groups.
“Young Master Li, you actually have such thods!”
“Where did that unstable and ferocious energy co from? How did you do it?”
Uncle Huo’s eyes were filled with awe. The dozen or so mud balls casually thrown out could produce such an effect; those mud balls were definitely not simple. If they could be controlled by the sect, they would be an unbeatable weapon in warfare!
“It must be the power of those mud balls, but what exactly are they?”
“Young Master Li possesses an exceptional talent; you must stay for a while in the Icy Frost Sect. I have great admiration for you!”
Han Buzhu and Uncle Han were also shaken. They were quick thinkers; what Li Xiaobai had used was clearly a special Magic Treasure. The wildly explosive energy that burst forth could sweep across the area with enough power to kill Earth Immortal Realm cultivators and even cause significant damage to those in the Heavenly Immortal Realm.
If the Icy Frost Sect had such divine weapons, its territory might even double!
“It’s just a trivial trick, nothing special. Did you see those shit-yellow buttons clearly just now? What kind of Demonic Beast are they?”
Li Xiaobai inquired.
“This Demonic Beast is called the Cui Ming Fish. Each one is small and shaped like a tiny, shit-yellow disc, and on their backs is an engraved character for ‘hurry’, which ans that as soon as they set their sights on you, you’ll have to go to Hell to et the King of Underworld.”
“These Demonic Beasts are social, capable of dragging a whole ship. There must be at least a thousand Cui Ming Fish hidden under the ship, likely led by a Heavenly Immortal Realm Cui Ming Fish!”
Uncle Huo explained, having seen the true nature of those yellow buttons very clearly, but he wasn’t worried. With Li Xiaobai present, as long as they dealt with the leading Heavenly Immortal Realm Cui Ming Fish, the school of fish would fall apart on their own.
“It’s just that we don’t know how many Heavenly Immortal Realm Cui Ming Fish there are. The combat power of Cui Ming Fish is not strong in itself; they rely mainly on group tactics. If there’s only one Heavenly Immortal Realm leading, it’s not much of a problem, but if there are more than three, I’m afraid we’re in trouble today.”
Uncle Han said.
“Let’s start by blasting them out.”
Li Xiaobai was unconcerned, and continued to sprinkle the Stars of Earthly Explosion into the sea as if sowing beans, making everyone’s scalp tingle. If all these exploded at once, wouldn’t they flip the ship?
“Excited heart, trembling hands, and upon flipping it open, a shit-yellow button.”
